What hurricane? New Yorkers want Starbucks back

New Yorkers, caffeine-starved by Hurricane Sandy’s devastating hold on the city, are making a pilgrimage to a lone Midtown Starbucks that’s open. The New York Post and the Starbucks Gossip blog report the store’s continued opperation spread via social media — and people showed up in droves.

“Fans walked and took Town Cars to the Starbucks adjacent to the Marriott Marquis off Times Square, as word spread via social media that it was open,” the Post reported.

A few choice quotes from the story:

“There’s nothing else we would’ve gone out for. This makes the day complete.”
